Standard (1 paragraph)

Logistics & Beyond is East Africa's first end-to-end logistics marketplace, founded in Nairobi, Kenya in 2025. The platform connects all five stakeholders in the logistics supply chain — logistics managers, freight forwarders, transporters, warehouse managers, and customers — on a single, transparent, technology-driven platform. With operations across Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, and South Sudan, Logistics & Beyond enables competitive freight bidding, real-time cargo tracking, automated document generation, and digital proof of delivery. The company operates a SaaS subscription model with plans starting at $49 per month. logisticsandbeyond.co.ke

Extended (2 paragraphs)

Logistics & Beyond is East Africa's first full-stack logistics marketplace, founded in Nairobi, Kenya in 2025. The platform solves the fundamental coordination failure at the heart of East African logistics — a $50 billion market where 78% of freight professionals still manage shipments via WhatsApp and Excel. By connecting shippers, freight forwarders, transporters, and warehouse managers in a single digital workspace, the platform enables competitive freight bidding, real-time cargo tracking, automated document generation, and digital proof of delivery across the Northern Corridor and beyond.

Operating across Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, and South Sudan, Logistics & Beyond addresses the structural inefficiencies that cost the East African logistics industry billions annually — including the estimated 40% of trucks on major corridors that return empty, and the 4.5 hours of manual documentation overhead per shipment. The company operates a subscription-based business model with plans designed for individual operators through to large freight forwarding enterprises. logisticsandbeyond.co.ke
